Manta Livin

Manta Livin is a cliff-top residential development by Big Bali Group, situated on the southern Bukit Peninsula in Uluwatu, within the Badung regency of Bali. Comprising two buildings and 55 residences, it positions itself as a wellness-led freehold community with direct sightlines across the Indian Ocean.

# The Buildings and Their Position Above Uluwatu

Uluwatu occupies the southernmost tip of Bali's limestone peninsula, a stretch of coast defined by its elevation and its relative insulation from the density of Seminyak or Canggu to the north. The clifftop setting delivers unobstructed ocean exposure for most units, a quality that is increasingly difficult to source in an area where developable land at height is finite.

The development spans two buildings across a site that the developer describes as integrating natural surroundings with contemporary architecture. At 55 units across two structures, the scale is deliberately modest. That restraint shapes the character of the place: this reads as a private community rather than a resort-scale block.

Construction is currently under way, with a completion date yet to be formally disclosed.

# Residences, Layouts and Floor Areas

The unit mix runs from compact one-bedroom apartments to a single four-bedroom residence at the top of the range. Entry-level one-bedroom units start at approximately 323 square feet, priced from AED 363,578, with a mid-tier one-bedroom configuration at around 420 square feet available from AED 473,753. Two-bedroom residences measure 1,384 square feet, priced between AED 1,450,638 and AED 1,560,813. The four-bedroom unit at 2,025 square feet is listed at AED 3,121,625.

The spread in size between the smallest and largest unit is substantial, spanning roughly 322 to 2,025 square feet. That range suggests a building designed to accommodate both investor-focused buyers seeking compact, manageable units and owner-occupiers who require meaningful living space. Residences are delivered unfurnished.

# Amenities and the Wellness Infrastructure

The amenity programme centres on wellness, and the operator has been specific about what is included. A swimming pool with a pool bar anchors the leisure offering. A restaurant framed around a marine concept, a spa complex, immersive yoga facilities, and a gym complete the health-oriented tier.

# Productivity and Daily Convenience

Beyond wellness, the complex incorporates a coworking space and a library, acknowledging the reality that a significant proportion of buyers in this category work remotely or maintain active schedules while in residence. Day-to-day needs are covered by a convenience store, a smoothie bar, and a coffee shop. The result is a self-contained environment that reduces the need to leave the site for routine requirements, a practical consideration given Uluwatu's clifftop geography.

The project also references integration of smart home technology, though specifics of that system remain subject to further clarification from the developer.

# Uluwatu's Position Within Bali

Uluwatu is the address that Bali's surf and design communities have organised around for two decades, and the area retains a character that distinguishes it from the island's more commercialised zones. The cliffs, the surf breaks and the beach clubs draw an internationally mobile crowd, and the residential stock has historically been thin relative to that demand. The Big Bali Group is developing into that gap.

The Badung regency, which encompasses Uluwatu, is administratively straightforward by Indonesian standards and has attracted consistent attention from Southeast Asian and European buyers.

# Who This Development Is Built For

The pricing structure at Manta Livin maps to a specific buyer profile. The entry-level units, sub-AED 400,000, are sized and priced for investors seeking Bali exposure without committing significant capital, particularly those already active in Dubai or other short-let markets who understand yield-driven residential assets. The two-bedroom and four-bedroom residences at the upper end address a different motivation: buyers who spend extended time in Bali and want space, privacy and amenities in a single address rather than cycling through hotel accommodation.

For international buyers based in the GCC or Europe, the AED pricing provides a familiar reference point. The combination of a clifftop ocean position, a controlled 55-unit scale, and a fully amenitised wellness programme answers the brief that lifestyle-led buyers in this bracket consistently present.
